Oooopppss … If you have a reading test. Sorry for the spelling. Manny Calavera, how do I enable WEP or WPA security? Do I need to pop software? Also, when my brother tries to connect to it, says his team is showing the router is not guaranteed or safety / encryption is disabled. How I can activate this? Manny, I do not see a drop-down list of what you said. Is it necessary to update the firmware? Because do not think I have the options you describe.
I have the WRT54G and offers WEP (bad) and WPA (better) safety. You can also disable the SSID broadcast and to a stranger (as the series of letters omgwtfbbq) name their SSID. Then add in this connection on your computer with a specific name (you will not find if "update the wireless network list. It can also only autorise only the MAC address of your computer (s) in the network. The three next step I can assure protections so bad for the neighbors of security does not evereday o) To activate, simply log into the router (192.168.1.1 by default with l: w admin: admin) and click the Wireless tab at the top. Then there will be sub-tabs 4-5. The second is security, you will find a combo box from which you can choose WAP, WAP-Enterprise, WAP-2, etc. .. A Then enter a passphrase or "key." Click Apply. This will reset your router and then your network will be secured. Be sure to do this with a cable connection, because if you have problems, then not be able to make any changes with a wireless connection;) When the router is reset, your brother must see it as a secure network
